Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A method for information management from a primary telecommunication equipment unit, the primary telecommunication equipment unit comprising a screen and equipped with a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) memory card connector, wherein a SIM Toolkit application developed in a SIM memory card is executed, thereby enabling management of information, the method for information management comprising: an acquisition phase of information for a database and the SIM memory card, comprising the steps of: (a) filling out a record by a user with personal information; (b) sending the record to an operator connected to a server linked to the database; (c) verifying of the record by the operator; (d) integrating the record in the database; (e) writing the record on the SIM memory card in a format useable by a standard telephone, via a link between the database and the SIM memory card, in memory registers of the SIM memory card intended for storing data required for establishing a session with a telecommunication operator; and a restoration phase of information, comprising the steps of: (a) inserting the SIM memory card in the connector of the telecommunication equipment, (b) exchanging information between the telecommunication equipment unit and the SIM memory card according to a standardized protocol, and (c) inhibiting the means of subscriber authentication and connection to a telecommunication network, the inhibiting step comprising detecting, by the telecommunication equipment unit, a numeric derivation sequence whose value is not assigned to a telecommunication operator or to a country, the numeric derivation sequence being recorded in a memory register of the SIM memory card where an International Mobile Subscriber Identifier (IMSI) number would normally be recorded to bypass a restriction of use of the telecommunication equipment unit to the telecommunication operator that supplied the telecommunication equipment unit, said inhibiting step causing the telecommunication equipment unit to operate as a local peripheral device outside of the network, by bypassing authentication and connection phases to the network, for displaying of the information written in the SIM memory card, the displaying comprising: (i) loading in a random access memory of the telecommunication equipment unit of information desired to be managed; and (ii) displaying said information on the screen of the telecommunication equipment unit via standardized applications of the telecommunication equipment unit.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the derivation sequence comprises the values “001” for a Mobile Country Code and “01” for a Mobile Network Code.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SIM memory card further comprising an elementary file (EF AD ) at the value “800,000.”
4. The method for information management according to claim 1 , comprising a reading step on the SIM memory card, said reading step comprising: connecting said SIM memory card with a telecommunication equipment unit capable of reading and displaying information contained in said SIM memory card; and displaying said information on the screen of said telecommunication equipment unit; the telecommunication equipment unit comprising a SIM memory card reader and the connecting step including insertion of said smart card into said reader.
5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising recording in a memory register of the SIM memory card numeric sequences executable by application software programs of the telecommunication equipment unit.
6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising recording in a memory register of the SIM memory card alphanumeric sequences that can be displayed by one or more software programs of the telecommunication equipment unit.
7. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising recording in a memory register of the SIM memory card a game executable by the software programs of the telecommunication equipment.
8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the telecommunication equipment unit is a mobile phone.
9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein writing comprises an additional step positioned after filling out the record comprising completing the record by a third party certifier for information requiring the expertise of a third party.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein filling out the record is handwritten and a certification comprises applying a specific stamp on a handwritten document.
11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein filling out the record is electronic and a certification adding an electronic signature to an electronic document.
12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the writing comprises a supplementary step of encrypting at least some data contained in a chip.
13. The method according to claim 12 , wherein at least some data contained in the chip are protected by an access code.
14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least some data contained in the database are encrypted.
15. The method according to claim 1 , wherein at least some data contained in the database are protected by at least one access code.
16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein writing comprises a supplementary step of loading libraries on the smart card enabling use of the telephone functions selected from a group consisting of placing a call, management of languages, and management of the operators.
17. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the SIM memory card lacks a means of enabling access to a telecommunication network by a telecommunication equipment unit in which the SIM memory card is inserted.
